Where was that Pete?

I heard something poxy like 18% in Dublin inner city.

RTE website says a good turnout over all, but maybe not as big as the last locals. Again, I hope it's due to FFers hiding under their blankets

So the local count is tomorrow and the Euro's on Sunday isn't it?

 

[Anarcho Munk]

Decided against voting in the end due to stuff coming up. Was only going to spoil my vote anyway. They're all wankers, end of.

The polling station hereabouts was very busy around 8 o'clock. The old school looks smaller than it did when I was 12. The hopscotch and map of Ireland painted in the school yard are faded too

not really

rte radio 1 i'm listening to and i did get local counts from LMFm

green party are doing well in Louth, will gain town council seats and could get their first representation on louth county council according to both lmfm and rte radio 1

 

[IFF]

there's a garda escort underway

a vote is being transported from dundalk to ardee for the ardee town council while another vote is being transported the opposite way for the louth county council

36 additional people voted in trim town council after being given 3 ballot papers while they should have only been given two as they were outside trim urban area

 

[magicbastarder]

poor paschal, he was 4/5 favourite to win and he's not doing as well as he hoped.

 

[IFF]

maureen o'sullivan has done very well but it'll come down to trnasfers between her, donohue and bacic and it'll be tight

 

[Froog]

if i hear "seismic shift" one more time i'm gonna flip.

 

[Froog]

truly bizarre bit on tv3 coverage, some guy going on about spiders copulating and then eating their partners as a metaphor for fianna fail and pd's.

 

[Unicron]

O'Sullivan - "The Gregory candidate" polled about 25% in the first count in Dublin central, should be enough to get through on the 4th-5th count on transfers.

 

[IFF]
